Student Resources
The Emergency Management curriculum is designed to provide students with a foundation of technical and professional knowledge needed for emergency services delivery in local and state government agencies. Study involves both management and technical aspects of emergency management.
Coursework includes classroom and laboratory exercises to introduce the student to various aspects of emergency preparedness, protection, and enforcement. Students will learn technical and administrative skills such as investigative principles, codes, standards, emergency agency operations, and finance.
As a graduate, you could work in ambulance service providers, fire/rescue agencies, fire marshal offices, emergency management services, emergency medical services, industrial firms, educational institutions, and other government agencies.
Using principles of emergency management, the College has brought our emergency management in line with local, state and national procedures with the utilization of the National Incident Management System (NIMS). This system has helped align all emergency response partners so that in the event of a crisis, there is a structure and plan in place to work together.
We have had a long history of collaboration with the College, from training to having a consistent presence of local sheriffs on campus. We look forward to continuing this partnership.
